Three arrested in Buenos Aires after attack on City Government headquarters

Three masked suspects were arrested early Thursday morning on charges of damaging the Buenos Aires City Government headquarters at 1 Calle Bolivar.

At around 3 a.m., two Molotov cocktails were thrown at the building’s main entrance at 525 Avenida De Mayo, but only one of the devices exploded, further damaging a part of the building already under repair after being attacked during recent demonstrations against the Mauricio Macri administration.

The three male suspects were taken to the first precinct, where criminal proceedings were initiated against them. An investigation is currently underway.
